Testing Dates

STAR 360 (Renaissance)

K-2 students have a new computer-based test this year. They will test 3 times a year. Instead of specific dates, there are large testing windows. We just completed one of our windows (September/October). We will test again in January, with a final test in April.

ACT Aspire

3rd grade students will take the ACT Aspire again. It is computer-based, and will be administered April 9-May 11.

MSAA

This test is also computer-based. At VES, it is administered to qualifying 3rd grade students whose IEP team has deemed regular standardized testing inappropriate for them. This is given in the Spring.

ELPA-21

This exam measures progress in English language development/usage for our ESOL students. It is computer-based, and is given in the Spring (in addition to regular standardized testing).

Parents, please plan ahead when scheduling doctor and dentist appointments this spring. Your child will test better if given an opportunity to take his/her tests on the regularly assigned date.
